I hope not. Being this close to NSD I doubt it. Plus Fedora is probably on the hot seat this up coming season will need to win. I doubt thig wants to risk it for just one year.

Sorry guys. I don't "camp out" on here. I was just looking for some quick information on the subject. And yes, I did check the football forum a couple of pages, but got tired of looking.

I keep hearing that Thig wants to reunite with Butch and the Greatest Staff in America next year, slappin'up some bricks and mortar.

dick! Clearly, auto correct didn't think so.

I love how people claim "auto correct" as an excuse. You still have an opportunity to read what you are about to post before you hit the button. :no:

The rumor I have heard here in NC is that if Fedora fudges up the opportunity, UNC would most likely hire Chizik, which would answer the question as to why he would ignore a school like LSU and go to UNC. Fedora needs to win to keep his job, or at least be in the mix for a new job, and Chizik sees an opportunity to get back at it. Could it cause friction? Maybe, but it appears they both need each other right now.

As for Thigpen, I posted this in the other thread, and it's just what my gut is telling me right now:

We may be kidding ourselves. UNC just ponied up top 10 coin for Chizik and appear that they are going to do the same for the rest of the staff. Also, the first firing that Gene made was to Ron West, their LB's coach. It appears that they have not only made room at Thig's position, but have also decided to take football seriously from a fiscal standpoint. Take all that and throw in the facts that he is a UNC alum and has a strong professional relationship with Chizik, and he might as well be as good as gone as I can tell.

I hope I'm wrong, but it's not looking like it.
